Oh yeah. That is why when I planted the apple trees, I actually read the instructions on the tag ha ha. Each tag had a list of other varieties that pollinate with each other. If you do not, you will get a tree that will not produce any fruit.

I'm not in any position to test this out presently but this is really good to know for the future when I move. Always meant to have a few fruit trees and pretty much nothing except apples and pears grows in Canada.
The apple trees, grapes and blue berry bushes were the first things I planted this fall. I did not want to wait an additional year for us to have fruit on the farm. I would like to add pears but my wife is kinda against it because we do not eat that many. I may slip them in next year and hide them somewhere else. Ha Ha
Try plums. We had them when I was a kid, back in central Alberta.
